﹙REFLECTIONS ★﹚
CHERRY STEPPED INTO THE NEW AND IMPROVED COBRA KAI DOJO!She was extremely uneasy in her white gi, and everybody could tell. Silently, Anthony placed his hand in hers. He didn't say anything, just squeezed her hand gently.
Her dojo had earned a spot in the Sekai Taikai, a world-renowned karate tournament. The only reason they'd even tried was because Cobra Kai was also trying to earn a spot. The judges decided to have a match with Cobra Kai against Miyagi-do, to make a decision between dojos.
"We'll begin with the boys. We have invited a local referee to ensure impartiality. First to three points wins." The main judge instructed, sitting down at a chair.
"Time to begin. Eli Moskowitz and Kenny Payne, please take the mat." The ref motioned the boys. "Face me. Bow. Face each other. Bow. Ready? Fight!"
The first point went to Kenny, and Cherry squeezed Anthony's hand, shoving the instinct to cheer far, far beneath her.
When Eli landed a hit that should've earned him a point, it was called out of bounds. "What, are you serious?" Eli complained.
"Ref, that's horseshit. He made contact in bounds!" Sensei Johnny yelled at the ref.
"No point. Back on the line." Ref motioned them back. "Ready? Fight!"
Kenny hit Eli in the back of the leg, which caused Eli to fall to the ground. Illegal strike. That's a warning." The ref called out.
"Warning? He should be disqualified." Daniel argued, but tried to keep his tone peaceful.
"It's fine. He just caught me off-guard." Eli shook his head.
Cherry and Anthony whispered complaints to each other. Everybody knew that the fight wasn't fair, and the ref definitely had some sort of bias. "Ready? Fight!" the ref called.
All of the confidence Eli had when he stepped out of the mat was gone. Kenny's hit had knocked Eli's breath away, causing him to collapse onto the floor.
"Point! 2-0, Payne." The ref yelled.
Eli gasped for breath, groaning. "Hawk, what's wrong?" Daniel rushed up to the mat, with Johnny by his side.
"I can't- can't... can't breathe." Eli spoke, as best as he could.
"Can you continue?" The ref asked as Eli attempted to get up, and Eli fell back onto the floor, which was evidence enough that he couldn't.
"Where's the medic?" Sensei Johnny yelled out.
The medic rushed onto the met, and the ref declared it a forfeit. All of the Cobra Kai students cheered, but the members of Miyagi-do were quick to call bullshit.
